"It is widely known that women produce significant amounts of estrogen and estrogen derivative hormones, including estradiol, progesterone, estrone and estriol. Estrogen and its derivatives play a crucial role in the female body, affecting a woman's ability to have children and nurse them. Often referred to as the beauty hormone, estrogen is essential for collagen production, skin health and maintaining a youthful appearance."
"Moving onto testosterone, while estrogen is the more well-known hormone for women, testosterone is also crucial. Women's ovaries and adrenal glands produce testosterone, which is then converted into estrogen and its derivatives. Low testosterone levels can result in decreased energy, cloudy brain function, difficulty speaking, low libido, muscle pain, weight gain, exhaustion, and difficulty concentrating. The lower the testosterone level, the more severe these symptoms become."
Hormone balance is essential for brain health. Estrogen and its derivatives (estradiol, progesterone, estrone, estriol) regulate reproduction, collagen production, skin health, and maintain youthful appearance. Excess estrogen can produce moodiness, depression, confusion, central obesity, menstrual irregularity, sleep deprivation, and increased breast and uterine cancer risk. Testosterone produced by ovaries and adrenal glands converts into estrogen and supports energy, libido, muscle function, and cognitive clarity; low testosterone causes fatigue, brain fog, speech difficulty, low libido, muscle pain, weight gain, and poor concentration. Serotonin promotes relaxation and confidence, while dopamine drives motivation and feelings of accomplishment.
